Pie thrower creams world's richest man

BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -- A pie-thrower smacked Bill Gates full in the face with a cream pie today, leaving the world's richest man with pastry dripping off his glasses and onto his suit.

Police arrested two people, one of whom reportedly had distracted Gates while the other made his attack.

The pie caught the Microsoft chairman head-on as he entered an ornate hall near the center of Brussels for meetings with Belgian computer industry and government leaders.

Associates hustled Gates into a side room. He emerged looking cleaner, but still grim.

"We regret the incident (but) will not press charges," said a spokesman for the Belgian office of Microsoft, the world's biggest software maker.

Police did not immediately identity the two people detained. They said they were looking for a third.

There were unconfirmed reports the pie was thrown by Noel Godin, a Belgian prankster who has struck at famous people before. His targets have included philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy and filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard.
